smoothie bliss and spelling bees

so i decided to pull out the vita mix yesterday to make a smoothie. it turned out to be one yummy smoothie. i threw in some milk and soft tofu, a banana, some frozen raspberries and a few frozen peach slices. steve thought it was the creamiest smoothie he'd ever had. it was pretty yummy.

i just made a chocolate banana shake. that was pretty naughty too. so, does it make it better that i put a banana in it? by doing that, did it take some of the bad stuff away?

anyway...

yesterday, jen called and asked if we wanted free tickets to the 25th annual putnam county spelling bee. i wasn't sure about it. i didn't know how good a musical about a spelling bee could be, but i figured they were free and steve and i need to be getting out and enjoying dates before the baby comes, so we took them.

we were just excited to get out of the house, but as we showed our tickets to the usher, he said 'wow!, you're all they way in front!'. thinking we didn't hear him quite right, and that we were just up front...we made our way down. we were amazed to find out that not counting the 3 front haughty taughty rows, we were in the first normal row and smack dab in the middle. the seats were amazing.

and the show? amazing. we were laughing the entire time. if you can, i'd recommend seeing it. there were a few crudeish scenes, if that bothers you...but all in all, it was great. the cast is only made up of 9 people and then they bring 3 people from the audience up. here's a video.




thank you jen and the ticket lady!!! we had a blast!
